Good afternoon! My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict. Loyalty is hard to find. Loyalty is rare...If you find it...keep it. It also can take a long time to build and second to lose. Same with trust. And commitment means staying loyal to what you were going to do long after the mood you said it in has left you. There is a loyalty I have to the group of friends I have in AA. I feel I need to stay loyal and sober to them and not only for me, but for them. I don't know if that sounds wierd to say, but that is how I feel. We are a kind of team, but only each person can play their position. We have each other's backs. We want what's best for each other. But we are ultimately responsible for our own actions. I will always be there when anyone needs help or wants to talk. My hand is always out. My ear is always ready to listen. That's all I got for today. Have a great one!
